Psykhe by Kate Forsyth takes an old myth and gives it a fun, fresh twist. Psykhe’s beauty gets her in trouble with Venus (rookie mistake, really), and suddenly she’s caught up in a whirlwind of forbidden love and trips to the Underworld. Forsyth's Psykhe isn’t just sitting pretty—she’s smart, bold, and ready to face the gods head-on. With romance, danger, and a good dose of girl power, this retelling has it all. Perfect for anyone who loves their mythology with a side of sass.
